Militants attack radio and TV station in Kashmir
2003-04-26
IRNA -- In a suicide attack by militants on the Radio Kashmir complex here, four persons, including two militants, were killed on Saturday afternoon. The militants, who came in an ambassadorial car, stormed the heavily guarded Radio Kashmir complex at around 1:00 p.m. (local time). One suicide attacker driving the car exploded the detonator at the gate killing two security guards and causing extensive damage to the main gate and its annexes. Other militants jumped out of the car and started firing, causing injuries to a number of people around. They were shot dead immediately afterwards. The area was cordoned off and a search operation was immediately launched by security forces. The attack came amid a heavy downpour in Srinagar. The attack has not affected transmissions of Radio Kashmir. This is the second suicide attack in less than 24 hours. Nobody in the militant group has taken responsibilty for the attack so far.
I really must be missing something here. I keep reading about the carnage in Kashmir, being perpetrated by India. But it seems like virtually all the killing is being done by the gunnies — most of them imported — and not by the Indians. The gunnies seem to kill a lot more innocent bystanders than the Indos bump off hunting for Bad Guys.
